Problem #1


Write a program called hw12_1.py that contains a recursive function called minmax() which returns the smallest and largest elements of a list of items. The items may be strings, numbers, or tuples, where the first element of the tuple is either a number or a string.

Example main() program:


def main():
     A = [ 1, 10, 20, 3, 2, -1, -10, 5, 5, 5, 5 ]
     low, high = minmax( A )
     print( "smallest item =", low, " largest item = ", high )
     # will print
     # smallest item = -10 largest item = 20

     A = [ 1 ]
     low, high = minmax( A )
     print( "smallest item =", low, " largest item = ", high )
     # will print
     # smallest item = 1 largest item = 1
 
     A = [ ]
     low, high = minmax( A )
     print( "smallest item =", low, " largest item = ", high )
     # will print
     # smallest item = None largest item = None

     A = [ "alpha", "beta", "gamma", "epsilon" ]
     low, high = minmax( A )
     print( "smallest item =", low, " largest item = ", high )
     # will print
     # smallest item = alpha largest item = gamma

if __name__=="__main__":
     main()


Requirements


  1. The function minmax() must be recursive.
  2. You cannot use the min() or max() standard Python functions. If you want to find the largest of two items, you need to do the comparison in Python, using <, <=, >, or >=.


Submission


Submit your program to the Moodle section, HW12 PB 1

Problem #2


Write a Python program called hw12_2.py that will generate a tree as close to the tree shown below as possible. You should not reproduce the text in the image; just the tree, its colors, and its fruit.

FractalTreeHw12.png



  • Submit your program as well as a screen capture of its output to Moodle, in the HW12 PB2 and HW12 Image 2 sections.
  • Note: To change the color of a line with the graphics library (use graphics111.py, please), you should use the setOutline() method rather than the setFill() method.
  • I used only 3 colors to generate the tree above: "orange", "blue", and "brown".
